Winter has come early this year, and after a long night out rounding up her animals, Fluttershy is oh so cold. But Rarity knows there is some other pony that her friend wishes was trying to warm her up...

Twilight and Fluttershy find themselves lost within the Reaper's Game. Will they be able to survive seven days inside and return to their homes? Can friendship triumph over heartache? Read on, and find out.

"It's called 'Shh'," said Fluttershy. "It's a game about who can be quiet the longest. Sound fun? I'm the world champion."

Fluttershy is not a pony who makes things up. She really is the world champion of "Shh," or The Quiet Game. And now it's time for her to defend her crown, with Twilight Sparkle and Rarity along for the ride.

She beat ... a skeleton. I'll restate that - she beat the inanimate remains of a pony. At being quiet. And then she beat Angel Bunny - the ninja rabbit. Actually, no, there are ninja that make more noise than that rabbit (admittedly, she did make use of his achilles heel, but my point still stands).More importantly, though - you wrote a fic based on a contest about being quiet. And you wrote it well.

Holy hell! You wrote the Cutie Mark Conspiracy! aww man, no wonder I loved this story so damn much. It is so weirdly engaging.

Much like the show itself, I can't quite explain just why I like it, just that its really, really good! This could be an episode. A really good episode. I'm just imagining the visuals and they lend themselves well to comedy.

Awesome work CIG, just funny and giggle inducing. (it was really hard to explain to my dad sitting next to me on the couch why I couldn't stop laughing when I started reading the skeleton scene. that was so perfectly written, so clever... just... god was that funny)

This is just amazing. I love the idea of the quiet game being a contact sport. Way to take a line and make it even more epic than it was originally. I was actually waiting for Big Macintosh to show up, he's so quiet as well.

I loved the writing in this and it was very enjoyable! Thank you for writing it.
